What Makes a Great Paying Player
What separates a good player from a great paying player? In this episode of Dice and Quills, I explore the player side of the professional TTRPG table. We’ll look at what makes a paying player a joy to run for, how to help new clients succeed in their first few sessions, and what red flags might signal future problems — even when the credit card clears.
From building trust and respecting boundaries to session etiquette and emotional investment, this episode is packed with practical insights that GMs can use to cultivate a healthy, thriving table environment — and that aspiring pro-level players might learn from too.
